Create kind metal-control-plane via containerlab #170

Open simcod opened 1 month ago

majst01 commented 1 month ago

It should be still possible to only spin up the control plane without any switches ? Is this the case ? If yes this would be awesome.

Would be possible with a third topology file.

@simcod Could you test https://containerlab.dev/cmd/deploy/#node-filter and document the behavior? We could introduce the additional make targets "only-control-plane" and "only-partition".

At the moment, the use of kinD via containerlab is not stable enough. Therefore, we should stick with the current configuration.

Should we close then?

We should discuss together, still find this approach reasonable

@simcod Why is not stable enough? 😅

It is possible to create the cluster with the --node-selector option. However, it is not possible to destroy it with this option. So the feature has currently some known issues. More information can be fond here.
